Meanings of alpha toxin in inglés

In addition, 154 isolates were positive by alpha toxin encoding gene-PCR assay.

In vitro alpha toxin production for all isolates was quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

The alpha toxin produced by Clostridium septicum is homologous to the large lobe of aerolysin.

At 4 degrees C alpha toxin neither stimulated potassium release from erythrocytes nor formed pores in planar membranes.

Like aerolysin, the hybrid was far more active than alpha toxin against human erythrocytes and mouse T lymphocytes.

We fused the small lobe of aerolysin to alpha toxin, producing a hybrid protein that should structurally resemble aerolysin.

Its lead product candidate, AR-301 targets the alpha toxin produced by gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus, a common pathogen associated with HAP and VAP.

Low-temperature inhibition of the cytolytic activity of alpha toxin has facilitated the identification of an important step in the cytolytic mechanism of this toxin.

These data support the hypothesis that alpha toxin oligomerizes into a membrane-bound, pre-pore complex prior to formation of a pore in a lipid bilayer.

Alpha toxin (AT) is a pore-forming toxin produced by Clostridium septicum that belongs to the unique aerolysin-like family of pore-forming toxins.
